Fixed a problem where a CopyObject to RegionField, BankField, and
IndexField objects did not perform an implicit conversion as it
should. These types must retain their initial type permanently as
per the ACPI specification. However, a CopyObject to all other
object types should not perform an implicit conversion, as per
the ACPI specification.

Fixed a problem with the SizeOf operator when used with Package
and Buffer objects. These objects have deferred execution for some
arguments, and the execution is now completed before the SizeOf is
executed. This problem caused unexpected AE_PACKAGE_LIMIT errors
on some systems.

Fixed a problem with the Alias operator when the target of the
alias is a named ASL operator that opens a new scope -- Scope,
Device, PowerResource, Processor, and ThermalZone. In these cases,
any children of the original operator could not be accessed via
the alias, potentially causing unexpected AE_NOT_FOUND exceptions.

Designed and implemented new external interfaces to install and
remove handlers for ACPI table-related events. Current events that
are defined are LOAD and UNLOAD. These interfaces allow the host to
track ACPI tables as they are dynamically loaded and unloaded. See

This reverts commit c0d127b569.
These changes to AML locking were made to allow
Notify handlers to be called on the stack
and not deadlock. However, that scheme turns
out to be flawed and was reverted by the previous commit,
so this commit restores the locking to it previous design.

ACPI AML supports "serialized" methods which are protected
by an implicit mutex. The mutex is re-entrant for that AML thread
to allow recursion.
However, Linux implements notify() by creating a new AML thread.
So for systems where notify() re-enters a serialized method,
deadlock results.
The fix is to use the Linux thread_id as the key to allowing
re-entrancy, not the AML thread pointer.

Enhanced the implementation of the interpreters'
serialized mode (boot with "acpi_serialize" to set
acpi_glb_all_methods_serialized flag.)
When this mode is specified, instead of creating a serialization
semaphore per control method, the interpreter lock is
simply no longer released before a blocking operation
during control method execution. This effectively makes
the AML Interpreter single-threaded. The overhead of a
semaphore per-method is eliminated.

The Table Manager component has been completely
redesigned and reimplemented. The new design is much
simpler, and reduces the overall code and data size of
the kernel-resident ACPICA by approximately 5%. Also,
it is now possible to obtain the ACPI tables very early
during kernel initialization, even before dynamic memory
management is initialized.

Completed a new design and implementation for
the ACPI Global Lock support. On the OS side, the global
lock is now treated as a standard AML mutex. Previously,
multiple OS threads could acquire the global lock
simultaneously, but this could cause the BIOS to be starved
by the lock in cases such as the Embedded Controller driver,
where there is a tight coupling between the OS and the BIOS.
